WIP Wednesday

I had a pretty productive week. In addition to making a passport wallet, I also finished some more wonky cross blocks. . .

I am about halfway done with these blocks now. Most of the first half are lighter blues and I am planning on cutting some darker blues and more neutrals for the second half of the blocks.

And basted, quilted, and squared up my groove quilt . . .

Hopefully I will get the binding started today. I was very torn about how to quilt this one. Generally I am a fan of straight lines, but I did not think that would be right for this quilt. I am not very comfortable with free motion quilting, and I have only really ever done some pebble quilting, so I didn't know if I would be able to come up with a different way to quilt each color.

I am pretty happy with how it turned out. It is FAR, FAR from perfect, but it is better than I expected it to be. I figure if I waited to start doing more free motion quilting until I was amazing at it, it would never happy ;)

The quilting on your Groove quilt looks amazing! I totally feel the same way about free-motion quilting and am challenging myself to do it on the quilt that I'm currently working on. It's not perfect but it's great practice!
